I take it still waiting for your pols to tell you what you can say. Pretty much. There isn't a clear narrative at this point other than it is somehow Obama's fault. That they can agree on. Their pols do this to them all the time. Its really very unfair and it really messes with the flow on this thread. The rest of us are talking about major current events and the wingers have to sit on their fingers and simply whistle.........or try and find a way that blames Obama without backing them into a corner should their pols come up with some different reasoning. Its got to be very stressful for them given their backgrounds.

>> There isn't a clear narrative at this point other than it is somehow Obama's fault. That they can agree on. Everyone who has been paying attention for the last (almost) six years recognizes that Obama has no clue. The extent to which any particular item is his fault can be debated. But no reasonable person would argue that Obama has been anything other than a foreign policy disaster. His absurd "message to Putin" about how he would have more flexibility after the election was essentially a message to Putin proclaiming, "I'm weak; I'm stupid, and you can do any damned thing you want because you're dealing with a rank amateur." The man couldn't negotiate his way out of a paper bag. And that is obvious to every foreign leader at this point. Every time I think it cannot possibly get worse, this president does something even more stupid.
